Tiny Caroline's Growing Sense of Justice

Episode 1

We always tell Caroline not to grab things from her playmates. "Don't grab," we say.

Sometimes, though, she picks up a knife, or tries to put antibiotic ointment in her milk, and to stop this, we have to take things from her.

"Don't grab!" she says. "You hurt my feelings! Say you're sorry!"

Epistode 2

Sometimes I quote The Stones at Caroline. She says "I want ice cream" and I say "You can't always get what you want."

Sometimes Caroline quotes The Stones at me. I say, "Put on your coat. I don't want to be late for play group." She says, "You can't always get what you want."
